At the beginning of the 2010s, we marveled at how fast technology seemed to be advancing and how it was changing the way we do business. Over the past ten years, it seems things have moved even faster. As we come to the close of this decade, let’s do a quick roundup of some of the most notable tech advances that have transformed our offices, businesses and workflows over the past ten years.

Your Orange County business is growing and flourishing; you’re seeing an increase in clients and revenue, you’re having to hire more staff to accommodate the work load. It’s all great news, but there are some growing pains involved with it. In today’s instant digital world, standard land-line phone systems can be cost-prohibitive and actually hinder you from staying competitive.

These days, Internet-based phone service (Voice over Internet Protocol, or VoIP) is rapidly transforming the way businesses communicate. By switching to VoIP, small businesses not only can enjoy a wide range of features, but they can also experience a noticeable bump in their bottom line. Let’s discuss some ways VoIP services can boost Orange County businesses.

To suggest Internet-based VoIP phone service is taking over the world would be an understatement. According to numbers compiled by The VoIP Report, the Internet phone service market is predicted to grow by at least 10 percent per year, until 2021. For small businesses, one of the biggest driving factors behind this growth is finances: For any business operating on a budget, options that offer more services for less money are highly attractive. And VoIP in particular can provide a huge array of services for a fraction of cost on the standard Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). However, the savings don’t even end with the services themselves. Let’s look at a few other ways your company can save by switching to VoIP.

Technology is revolutionizing just about everything in our world, including the way we all do business.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to setting up VoIP service. The primary need for any VoiP service is a high-speed Internet connection, which most companies already have in place. Typically, smaller businesses need only a minimal amount of additional equipment, especially for cloud-based VoIP where the servers are located offsite. If your business requires a larger premises-based service (PBX), you may need more hardware, more servers and additional infrastructure. Let’s look at a few of the more common scenarios.
